Jon Hicks joins Opera

October 9, 2008 · by Haavard

Some great news today: Jon Hicks (yes, that Jon Hicks) has joined Opera as a Senior Designer, and he'll be spending his time doing design for the desktop browser, as well as Mini, Mobile and Widgets.

It's great to have him on board, and I can't wait to see his work in a product. Opera 10 and Opera Mini 5, perhaps? :smile:

    That is just plain awesome – I'm a big fan of Jon Hicks' work, especially the logo design he did for Silverback.

    This may be the smartest move Opera has made this year, and I'm certain that the new logo for Opera 10 will turn out great :wink:
